Guac*a*mole
9 Ingredients and 5 minutes start to finish
2 ripe avocados
1/4 teaspoon garlic salt
1 garlic clove minced
1/2 Tablespoon fresh lime juice
1/2 Tablespoon lemon juice
2-4 Tablespoons chopped red onion or thinly sliced green onion
1-2 Jalapeños chopped
2 Tablespoons cilantro chopped or torn
1/2 ripe tomato, chopped (optional)
Mash the avocado flesh:
Using a fork, roughly mash the avocado. (Doesn’t have to be super smooth, we all like a little chunky guacamole. right?)
Add remaining ingredients:
Sprinkle with garlic salt, lime, and lemon juice. Fold in the chopped tomato, onions, jalapenos, and cilantro.
Serve immediately!
FUN FACT: Use both lime and lemon you will love it, I do —thanks JEM.
Why add acid? The acid in the lime and lemon juice provides a nice balance to the richness of the avocados and helps delay the browning of the fruit.
